Samsung users are talking about the One UI 6 bug that turns the screen yellow

According to complaints from Samsung smartphone users on the official forum in South Korea, One UI 6, the latest Android update produced by Samsung, has a bug that activates eye comfort protection without user consent.

Reports indicate that the screen remains without the filter until 5:30 p.m., when it is applied to the entire screen. Moreover, users point out that rebooting the smartphone, changing settings and even restoring factory settings did not work.
